Hmm, what do you call "normal" conditions? A case whrer you do not tell the app explicitly, which device to use? i suppose the pcm.rear you talk about is defined as hw:0,1. Now, to make this device the default device for all alsa apps you need to override the pcm-device called "pcm.default". also define a ctl device called ctl.default which point to the hw:0,1 device. I don't know the details, but check the docs, there's some info about the default device.. Also, if you want music to come out of both front and rear out, then my guess would be that you have to create a new pcm device in your .asoundrc which then "distributes" the sound to both hw devices.. Don't kow the details either. Check the docs [there's one called alsa-lib doc or something but it really leads to a description of the plugins]..
